Paleo Blender Banana Loaf

The discovery of Paleo Gluten Free’s “5 Minute Paleo Banana Bread” was one of the best discoveries of 2017. Seriously. I highly recommend you go check out the original post, as that’s what I adapted this recipe from. I like banana bread / banana loaf quite a bit sweeter than the original recipe (and thought…

DIY Paleo Chocolate Chips!

I posted earlier this week about Sinfully Strong Dark Chocolate (post located here). Good news! I have a follow up post for converting it into chocolate chips (hopefully ideal for baking, not that I’d know, since my boyfriend ate them ALL over the course of this week).

Ingredients (it’s so easy): 1 TAZO pitcher…

Case and point: dark chocolate. Especially paleo, make it…

Ropa Vieja (with Chicken)

This week I was introduced to the classic Cuban Ropa Vieja by the mother of a dear friend. She used the following recipe, which called for beef. Holy cow (no pun intended), was it delicious!! Upon returning to my kitchen, I decided to use chicken (as we had some on hand and tend to limit…

Welcome to the Yum Yum!

First post on a health food blog. I never, ever thought I’d see the day. If you’ve already read my About Me, you know that about a year ago, my boyfriend and I decided to make a drastic change in how we were eating. No more eating out multiple times a week (or even a day),…
